Macavity's a mystery cat

He's called the Hidden Paw

His powers of levitation

Would make a fakir stare

And when you reach the scene of crime
Macavity's not there!
Post-Chorus:

You may seek him in a basement

You may look up in the air

But I tell you once, and once again

Verse 2:
G7 Cm Eb
Macavity's a ginger cat
F G7
He's very tall and thin
Cm Eb
You would know him if you saw him
F G7
For his eyes are sunken in
Cm Eb
His brow is deeply lined in thought
F G
His head is highly domed
Cm Eb
His coat is dusty from neglect
F G7
His whiskers are uncombed
Cm Eb
He sways his head from side to side
F G7
With movements like a snake
F
And when you think he's half asleep
G7
He's always wide awake!
Chorus:
G7 Cm Eb
Macavity, Macavity
F7 G7
There's no one like Macavity
Cm7 Eb7
For he's a fiend in feline shape
F7 Gbdim
A monster of depravity
Cm Eb
You may meet him in a by-street
F7 Gbdim
You may see him in the square
G N.C.
But when a crime's discovered
Then Macavity's not there!
Verse 3:
Eb Gb Am Am7 Gb Eb Cm
He's outwardly respectable
F
I know he cheats at cards
Eb Gb Am Gb Eb Cm
And his footprints are not found in any
Cm7 N.C.
Files of Scotland Yard's
Gbdim
And when the larder's looted
Or the jewel case is rifled
Cdim
Or when the milk is missing
Bb Ab
Or another Peke's been stifled!
Cm Cm7
Or the greenhouse glass is broken
Cm Ab7
And the trellis past repair
Cm N.C.
There's the wonder of the thing
Macavity's not there!
Chorus:
G7 Cm Eb
Macavity, Macavity
F7 Gbdim
There's no one like Macavity
Cm Eb
There never was a cat
F7 Gbdim
Of such deceitfulness and suavity
Cm Eb
He always has an alibi
F7 Gbdim
And one or two to spare
Cm N.C.
What ever time the deed took place
Macavity wasn't there!
Bridge:
Cdim
And they say that all the cats
Adim
Whose wicked deeds are widely known
Cdim
I might mention Mungojerrie
Adim
I might mention Griddlebone
Cm Eb
Are nothing more than agents
F7 Ab7
For he's a cat who all the time
Cm N.C.
Just controls the operations
The Napoleon of crime!
Chorus:
G G7 Cm7 Eb7
Macavity, Macavity

There's no one like Macavity
Cm7 Eb7
He's a fiend in feline shape
F7 Gbdim
A monster of depravity
Cm7 Eb7
You may meet him in a by-street
F7 Gbdim
You may see him in the square
Cm
But when a crime's discovered

Then Macavity, Macavity, Macavity, Macavity
Cdim F7 Ab
